RSVPs for this event are closed
Join us Thurs Oct 25th for a night of consciousness raising and feminist community building. In the last year, the Mass NOW Foundation has been going back to our roots and hosting consciousness raisings in living rooms across the Commonwealth. These are intimate conversations over dessert & wine and spaces where we can strengthen our personal narratives and educate our communities about our priority issue areas.
For this month's meeting, we'll be discussing the Yes on 3 ballot initiative and the Freedom for All Massachusetts campaign to support transgender rights. Mass NOW rejects the hateful and false claim that transgender rights threaten women's safety.
In October 2016, the Secretary of the Commonwealth confirmed that opponents of the law secured the low threshold of signatures – less than 1% of the Commonwealth’s population – needed to force this commonsense update of our state law onto the 2018 ballot. This November, a YES vote on Question 3 is a vote to uphold basic protections for our transgender neighbors, family and friends.
This event will be held in Roxbury, MA. The address will be provided upon RSVP.
